• A wonderful visually inspiring feminine color combination found at inchmark (she calls them "color stories" which of course I love) . And yes, I am totally into delicate little pinks right now (and washing very small baby clothes).
• Leo's new book The Power of Less. Lots of you know that I am a big fan of Leo's popular Zen Habits blog. I am working my way through his new book and it's all about getting down to the essentials of everything in your life. A great read for so many of you that are (like me) working on simplifying your lives.
• Listening to Alexi Murdoch's Time Without Consequence album and The Weepies again.

Organizi - Three Things : Back To BasicsJanuary 6

As I was working on my Studio A column for the May issue of Creating Keepsakes I was thinking about my basic supplies - those things I turn to again and again and like to have in bulk. I have highlighted some of my usual favorites (pens, albums, & adhesives) in Three Things in the past.

Our normal routine is to read a book to h
